If you want that squiggly gun camera tracer look then they need to cook up a gun camera feature that records as soon as you press fire and records for 3 seconds after you release it. Build it where it looks like it is indeed a camera that is bolted down where it gets all the vibration in the field of view. Blackdog is correct. Your eyeballs are surrounded by soft tissue and that helps to reduce this affect you normally see with all this old footage from WWII.

Speaking of this. How hard would it be to create a menu item that you could enable within CoD that would act as your guncam? Can't be all that hard.

Just add a recording view that is 30 degrees FOV record to gif file.

Does this get anyone else excited??

gun camera recording option would be awesome, you could review just your shooting so you could see how you could improve gunnery

well, seems like those who saw real tracers and those who didn't agree that CODs tracers aren't right...
So what would be the good compromise here so everyone feels that we get
realistic impression of what would be real tracers as seen by humans in a real plane flying at 250 mph ?....What would be a common ground as reference in that case ? The best thing would be to have something on film or video that would bring unanimous agreement as a basis to work from....

Am I dreaming ?

salute !
